Who was Prophet Muhammad ﷺ?
The Prophet ﷺ was born in Makkah and grew up an orphan, cared for as a baby by Halima in the desert. People called him Al-Amin, the trustworthy, long before he became a prophet. In the cave of Hira the angel Jibril brought him the first words of the Qur'an, "Read in the name of your Lord who created", and his wife Khadijah comforted him.
On the Hijrah he hid in a cave with Abu Bakr and told him, "Do not grieve, Allah is with us." The people of Madinah came out with joy to meet him. On the Night Journey, Allah took him to Jerusalem and up through the heavens, and he brought back the five daily prayers.
Many titles show his character. He told his companions to return a sparrow's chicks, spoke up for a camel that was starved, shared his food and helped at home. In the Once Upon a Time in Medina videos, animal friends go to see him for themselves. Rhyming picture books tell of the moon that split, the spider's web across the cave and the palm trunk that cried for him. Children can also play a game caring for Al Qaswa, his camel.
The Qur'an calls him an excellent example. Each title's page gives its sources, the lessons to take from it and questions to help your child follow that example.

Frequently asked questions
How do I introduce Prophet Muhammad ﷺ to a young child?
Start with short stories of his kindness, such as the rhyming picture books or the Once Upon a Time in Medina videos. Older children can go on to the longer audiobooks about his childhood and the Night Journey.
Why did the Prophet ﷺ hide in a cave on the Hijrah?
When he left Makkah for Madinah with Abu Bakr, they sheltered in a cave, and Allah protected them there. Several titles tell it through a little spider that spins her web across the cave, a story told in later narrations; the Qur'an (9:40) says Allah protected them with soldiers they could not see.
What was the Night Journey of the Prophet ﷺ?
In one night Allah took the Prophet ﷺ from Makkah to Jerusalem and then up through the heavens. There the five daily prayers were given to him, and he brought them back to his people.
